Plastic Spreader
$1
Use this flexible plastic spreader to smooth repair putty over broad, scaly surfaces, curves and corners.
One spreader is included in each Vinyl Repair & Leather Filler Kit. Clean it with alcohol.
If you can feel the damage, such that a gentle sanding won’t correct it, then repair is recommended.
